Dialectics of Form
and Content
Form and content ...it would seem that the dialectic of these categories is quite obvious.
However, when embodying a creative idea as content in the artistic form, a great importance begins to play, hidden in the content of the material, its unique energy.
Wood has a special wealth of internal energy. In the process of growth tree absorbs energy of water-rain-domestic juices, ceasefire-sun, land-stone-soil, wind-atmosphere-air.
Thus, wood is a unique collector all major vital elements.
Wood's inner uniqueness helps the artist to reveal
a special additional content, especially in the abstract style.
Therefore, wood is the main material of my artistic work.
